assign license codes to specific users in a multi tenant

[netweaver]

I have a multitenant solution, where my customers buy their own licenses.
However there is not easy way to assign a license to the user or users that own that license. I have to compare the company name in the license with a matching company name i have added to a custom table of the users created on the system.
It would be better if we could releate the custom table to the license entries table.

Thanks

Hi Marcus,

If you want this to make it into a real request you have to add it to the Servoy Support System.

Hi Marcus.

You could do this right now already with some effort.
Just store on the organisation (login) table the amount of clients one is allowed to use (i.e. their bought licenses).
Now when someone logs in they need to supply their organisationname as well as their username and password.
After a successfull login you set a unique organisation identifier in the client via application.addClientInfo(uniqueOrgValue).
Then check if they exceed the client count via application.getClientCountForInfo(uniqueOrgValue).

This last function was requested (pre 2.2.x) by developers just for this purpose.

Hope this helps.

Hi Robert
I presume you mean that i create an additional login field and license count field on my custom login form, then register tthe company name with each successfull login against the clients session. Each time i check to see if the users have exceeded the custom field for the number of licenses allowed.
Thanks

I am not sure if you mean that the users put all that in or that you, as an admin, store the license count info in a table.
But yes you need all that and let it act like you described.

Hi
Yes, i did mean that i set the company name and license count up, then validate a login against this info.
Thanks that helps a lot.
